PSA Launches New Mobile-friendly Global Squash Website by Nathan Clarke January 5, 2015
- The Professional Squash Association (PSA), the global governing body
responsible for the administration of both men's and women's
professional squash, have unveiled a brand new state of the art website
(www.psaworldtour.com) which will serve as the home of professional
squash on the internet and the new home of their online television
channel, SquashTV.
The new site, designed by leading web-agency Parallax, has been built
using the latest responsive web design technology with improved
functionality, design, and navigation and has been optimised for use on
all devices to keep squash fans up to date with all the latest
information from across the PSA World Tour - including event results,
latest news, PSA rankings, image galleries and more.
As part of the 'Phase One' launch, the PSA have invested in a brand new
platform for SquashTV, the organisation's online television channel
which streams over 300 live matches a year, and will use a brand new
player system provided by Ooyala (www.psaworldtour.com/tv) while
further developments are planned for 'Phase Two' later in 2015,
including complete integration of the Women's World Tour, following the
sport's announced merger in December 2014.
"We are delighted to see the new PSA World Tour and SquashTV platforms
launched this week and are excited about how these two key elements can
play a part in the future success of the PSA World Tour," said PSA
Chief Executive Alex Gough.
"We have been working closely with the team at Parallax for the past
six months with the aim of improving the user experience across all
devices, especially on smartphones and tablets, and creating the most
comprehensive and easy-to-use website for squash fans all over the
world.
"We have also invested considerably in improving the level of
production and service associated with SquashTV and feel that the
latest developments regarding this branch of our business will play a
pivotal role in ensuring the sport continues to grow in popularity
around the world."
